Top 5 Things to look for in an Exterior Paint

A new coat of Benjamin Moore paint or stain will add beauty and protection to your home’s exterior.

What to Look for in an Exterior Paint

1.Durability

Benjamin Moore paints are formulated to adhere to exterior surfaces, and resist cracking and peeling caused by weathering, sunlight and abrasion.

2.Smooth Application

With virtually no spattering, Benjamin Moore paints are designed for easy application and outstanding, flawless results.

3.Hide

Benjamin Moore paints are made from the highest quality materials, so they deliver superior hide, completely covering any stain or previous colour on your home’s exterior surf

4.Colour Retention

Exterior finishes are constantly exposed to harmful UV rays. Thanks to our proprietary Gennex® colorant technology, our paints and stains are able to resist fading and maintain their original colour—even in the darkest shades.

5.Mildew Resistance

Mildew is prevalent in moist, humid, and warm climates. Benjamin Moore paints are formulated to resist the growth of mold and mildew for a freshly painted look that lasts.

Choosing the right finish

Low Lustre is a lightly reflective and smooth sheen that offers a rich appearance.

Satin is a very versatile finish, giving you a subtle shine that can be used anywhere.

Semi-Gloss is a shiny, durable finish that is great for windows, shutters, doors, and other trim work.

High Gloss has a lustrous shine, making it a great option for areas that you want to highlight.
